Ever thought the Whispering Door quest of Mephala in vanilla Skyrim was a little underwhelming? This is a far more suitable quest for such a grand Daedra, set on a completely new island off the coast of Skyrim. It includes 30 new quests to complete, over 50 new voiced NPCs to meet and many new areas to explore.

This is a large mod that includes custom models and textures, new spells, books, a small player home, and a custom made follower, who after a while will offer a couple of very useful services. It has over 70 new interiors, new worldspaces, around 30 quests and over 50 voiced NPC's. Music from Spanish symphonic metal band Diabulus in Musica, and English composer Richard Nye complete the experience. We estimate about 20 hours play time in total for characters of any level. Begin in Dawnstar and travel a short way East along the coast towards the jetty.
Background Almost exactly halfway between the two provinces of Skyrim and High Rock, where the Sea of Ghosts meets the Azurian Sea, lies the small island of Wicklow. Some time ago a small community established itself there, mining the rare Lakestone deposits. Connected to the mainland of Skyrim only by a boat from Dawnstar, the villagers rely on home grown food and a plentiful supply of rabbits and chickens - but one person on the island holds a mysterious secret.
Take the boat to Wicklow, and find the secret. Earn Mephala's respect if you can, and with it the rewards it brings.
